Intro- Verse 1 Chords
I F#walked into a honky-tonk just the other C#day
I dropped a nickel in a juke box just to hear it F#play
I didn't have no tune in mind, I didn't wait to C#choose
Just dropped a nickel in the slot and I played the juke box F#blues
Instrumental- chords from verse 1
F#There's a guy in there with an old tin horn
And a feller on an old baC#njo
And the man of the fiddle he wasn't no slouch
He could really drag that F#bow
Fiddle plays-Chords from verse 1
F#Well, the man on the fiddle he must have got tired 
I didn't hear him C#say
'Cause he cut loose on the steel guitar
And the juke box ran aF#way
Steel guitar plays- Chords from verse 1
F#And I've heard something going strong
It must have been a C#drum
It gave that song a solid beat
Boy it was goin' F#some
Drum plays- Chords from verse 1
F#I walked into a honky-tonk just the other C#day
I dropped a nickel in a juke box just to hear it F#play
I didn't have no tune in mind, I didn't wait to C#choose
Just dropped a nickel in the slot and I played the juke box F#blues
Lead guitar plays- Chords from verse 1*
F#I've played a lot of juke boxes
Most everyone in C#town
That's the first tune I've ever heard 
That can make one mess aF#round
INSTRUMENTAL-F#  
Play the juke box C#blues
Such a rhythm I've never heard 
I danced out both of my F#shoes
End on F#

Just dropped a nickel in the slot and I played the juke box blues

Instrumental- chords from verse 1

There's a guy in there with an old tin horn

And the man of the fiddle he wasn't no slouch

He could really drag that bow

Well, the man on the fiddle he must have got tired

I didn't hear him say

'Cause he cut loose on the steel guitar

And the juke box ran away

And I've heard something going strong

It must have been a drum

It gave that song a solid beat

Boy it was goin' some

Such a rhythm I've never heard

I danced out both of my shoes
